AirLink®MP70: LTE Router

Performance Series

The AirLink® MP70 is a high performance, LTE-Advanced Pro vehicle router developed specifically for mobile mission critical applications in public safety, transit and field services.

Offering high power, long range Gigabit Wi-Fi and Gigabit Ethernet, and up to 600 Mbps downlink and 150 Mbps speeds over LTE-Advanced Pro, the AirLink MP70 unites the fleet with the enterprise network and enables multiple field applications to work simultaneously, further and faster from the vehicle than ever before.

See how the MP70 with built-in Inertial Navigation (Dead Reckoning) technology can provide precise, continuous location tracking of your mobile assets, even in urban canyons and underground garages where satellites cannot be seen.

MP70 Benefits

High Performance Vehicle Area Network (VAN)

With dual-band Gigabit Wi-Fi and Gigabit Ethernet, the AirLink MP70 enables a complete portfolio of broadband mission critical applications to work simultaneously, further and faster from the vehicle than ever before.

Built for first responders and field personnel, the MP70 offers up to 600 Mbps
downlink speeds and upload speeds of 150 Mbps over LTE-Advanced with fallback to 3G networks, and up to 1.3 Gbps over 802.11ac Wi-Fi
(with 3x3 MIMO) and Gigabit 4-port Ethernet. The AirLink MP70 can host up to
128 simultaneous Wi-Fi clients, and concurrently connect multiple mission critical
applications in and around the vehicle including laptops, DVRs and tablets, in addition
to providing live video streaming, and rapid and secure access to remote databases,
such as record management systems.

Connected Vehicle Awareness

The AirLink MP70 increases efficiency, streamlines operations and reduces costs by supporting advanced remote visibility and instant insight into the vehicle area network (VAN), field applications and assets, and the workforce.

Purpose Built for Vehicles

The MP70 provides superior reliability and continuous operation in harsh environments. It will survive extreme transient surges, and maintain continuous power during 5V brownouts and spikes from -600 VDC to 200 VDC.

Secure, Intelligent Communications

Offering up to 5 concurrent VPN sessions, the AirLink MP70 enables secure communications to multiple back-end systems, and provides remote authentication management to allow the implementation of enterprise-grade systems to control access to devices in the field.

Network Management

Network Management solutions for the MP70 allow over-the-air registration, configuration and software updates, and can be deployed either as a hosted cloud-based service, or as a licensed software platform in the enterprise
data center.

Available as a cloud-service, ALMS provides a dashboard view of the entire deployment, including signal strength, network technology and location. Custom alerts can be set-up to monitor and report critical events, which help you in increasing efficiency and preventing downtime. ALMS is free to use for any deployment with 15 devices or less.

AirLink® Connection Manager (ACM)

Secure IP Mobility, Sub-Second Switching

The AirLink® Connection Manager (ACM) is a mobile-optimized VPN server that securely extends the enterprise network to the vehicle. Designed to work with AirLink® gateways and routers, the ACM consolidates security onto a single platform for all connected devices and applications in the vehicle area network.

Communicating securely over cellular networks to back-end IT systems and cloud services.

With automatic network fallback, ALEOS is built to get connected and stay connected. Together with AirLink Management Service, ALEOS enables you to set up your own security and networking settings (i.e. VPN tunneling, port forwarding, and routing); activate GPS location tracking and generate reports without any programming.

ALEOS Application Framework

Get the business data you need from field operations into your back-end systems. ALEOS Application Framework (AAF) provides a simple scripting interface that requires no deep embedded or wireless expertise to gather vital machine data. Integrated with AirVantage® IoT Platform, you can quickly incorporate field data to build powerful IoT applications using web-friendly APIs.

Antennas

Here are the certified AirLink Antenna selections for the MP70 vehicle gateway.

“We believe the MP70 will be instrumental in removing vehicle networking bottlenecks, as demand for high-bandwidth mobile devices continues to grow, and we’re very excited to deploy it in our larger law enforcement fleets in the months ahead.”

“We trialed the MP70 router to connect our in-vehicle toughbooks, and provide a Wi-Fi hotspot for our team to access critical database records onsite in real time during emergencies,” said Greg Katz, Lieutenant, Billerica Police

“Right out of the box, we were struck by the MP70’s top-notch, ruggedized form factor—with hardened aluminum casing, it’s clearly designed for turbulent vehicle environments. We are also very impressed with its reliable LTE connectivity and, because it offers 4-port Gigabit Ethernet, we will be able to support more in-vehicle equipment, such as video cameras and ALPR, bringing the full functionality of our office network to our patrol officers.”

“After twenty two years of putting mobile data into vehicles, I have never been more excited about a Sierra Wireless mobility product as I am about their new vehicle router—the AirLink MP70,” says Chip George, Sales Manager, Astral Communications.

“Mobile application requirements have quickly outpaced the capabilities of current market offerings, and the demands end-users place on mobile cellular routers have increased exponentially. Wireless networks are now expected to perform as well as wire-line networks and, with 802.11ac Gigabit Wi-Fi, Gigabit Ethernet, and LTE-Advanced, the AirLink MP70 makes a giant leap in meeting this expectation and prepares end-users for their future needs.”
